[CRITICAL REQUEST] Please make npm library!

See original GitHub issue

Hi, thank you for creating such a cool tool like Flare!

However, I found the way of using it, at least currently, with javascript is very far from the standard.

In my opinion, being able to install Flare as npm dependency(like the below) is neccessary.

npm install flare

Then developers could use it with well defined, clean API like this.

<script>
  import Flare from 'flare'

  const flareObject = new Flare({
    target: "#canvas-id",
    file: "example.flr",
    width: 128, // default to full parent width if unspecified
    height: 128, // default to full parent height if unspecified
    onSomeEvent: () => { ... },
    onAnotherEvent: () => { ... }
  })
</script>
<body>
  <canvas id="canvas-id"></canvas>
</body>

If Flare provides clean vanilla js API, then community would possibly create ecosystem, like vue or angular component by themselves.

This is a good idea. We have a flare-react one, we should do this for flare-js too! Thanks!

Give this a try! npm install @2dimensions/flare-js

We’re also looking into externalizing our slimmed down CanvasKit so you can link it externally. Currently it’s bundled with the JS. We could trim almost 2MB by doing this, but it would require a slightly more tedious setup for end users.
